I got error when trying to open MS Office (Excel and Word)

Asked By Tony Bailey 50 points N/A Posted on - 02/04/2013

I recently restored my laptop system and when I tried opening MS Office (Excel and Word) I got the error message below. I tried several actions including repairing it from the Control Panel but got the Click-To-Run error messages. How can I fix this?

Microsoft Office Starter 2010

A file required to set up Microsoft office Starter 2010 is corrupted. Try

running Setup again. If the problem continues, contact your computer

manufacturer for support.
